PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
This impressive Victorian barn, known as Cob Barn, originally served the nearby farmhouse and was converted approximately eight years ago. Since then, the current owners have made a number of thoughtful improvements, further enhancing what was already a property finished to an exceptional standard.

The barn offers a wealth of character and charm, with striking features including a stunning vaulted ceiling, timber framed double glazed windows and aluminium rainwater fittings. These period details are complemented by modern comforts, including multi zone oil fired central heating, with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and a 7kw EV charger.

At the heart of the home is an impressive kitchen fitted by Wren, featuring a range of coordinated units and high quality appliances. These include a Bosch hob with a motorised rising extractor, a large electric Aga, microwave and dishwasher. The central island, formed from a single piece of stone, also serves as a breakfast bar and incorporates concealed power sockets and USB connectivity. An adjoining utility room provides additional storage, a sink unit and further cupboards and drawers, along with a mixer tap. The dining area and principal living space are subtly divided by an elegant staircase with a glass balustrade. The living area offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, centred around a solid fuel stove, making it an ideal space for relaxation.

The ground floor accommodation includes three well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room with coordinated sanitary ware, a heated towel rail and a touch sensitive illuminated mirror. A dedicated dressing area within the room provides an excellent range of built in storage, including drawers and hanging space. The two remaining double bedrooms are served by a beautifully presented family bathroom, which features a mains fed shower over the bath, a heated towel rail and an attractive recessed window shelf.

Externally, the gardens are level, private and well enclosed. To the rear of the barn is a charming shepherds hut, fully equipped with utilities and currently used both as guest accommodation and as a home office.
